Hi,

there is a version in http://www.squeaksource.com/Logging with some 
additional features. I particularly liked the ability to swap 
DateAndTime for a different one for a single thread, so as to have a 
clock that runs in slowmotion or backwards. I wondered whether doing the 
same thing for "Smalltalk" would give us a "poor-mans-namespaces" solution.
